Just trying to say that some things that you develop as a glove maker you should maybe keep to yourself as these kind of details can make the difference between someone buying a glove from you or another.I say this because ( It's been said before ) glove makers question why people will only pay X amount for a glove but pay more for a mask when there can be so much more work and hours put into researching and producing a high quality glove , and when you have these kind of screen accurate details that I have not seen in another glove makers work , these are the kind of things that mean you can ask for a higher price than a glove maker who makes the same glove who does not use the same techniques and screen used details as you.why would someone pay X amount for a glove if you have a more accurate glove for that little bit more , that makes if worth it to the high end collector ? This applies to all glove makers , You all want to stand out for your work don't you ? if not you would be producing generic designs and selling them on ebay for a quick buck <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":confused:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"confused.gif\" /><!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndAll very good points. When I first came onto the glove-making scene, I was new to these forums and everything related to it. I didn't know about proper etiquette when it comes to creating things like this. I thought it was a large group of fans who shared anything and everything to make everyone happy. As time went on, I discovered that there are "rules' to this hobby and have since learned to discipline my own behavior. I quit asking other glove makers for their trade secrets, etc. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"

It's always a good idea to keep your own self-made techniques to yourself unless you don't really care if they're secret or not. Good work though!
